INTERIOR DESIGNER

ABOUT ME GUIDING PRINCIPLES

From an early age, I found myself over analyzing the environments that surrounded me which drove my fascination for architecture and design. I realized that the environments around me would impact my mood and wellbeing profoundly. This realization fueled my passion to become an interior designer, igniting a deep desire to create spaces that inspire and enrich the lives of those who inhabit them.

With every project, my goal is to create harmonious spaces that intertwine sustainability, biophilia, diversity, equity, and inclusion, that positively benefits the health and wellbeing of communities I design for.

Sustainable Design and Biophilia: Commitment to creating spaces that harmonize with the environment and embrace the principles of sustainability with innovative designs.

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion: Embracing diversity, equity, and inclusion, striving to design environments that celebrate the unique perspectives and backgrounds of all.

Health and Well-being of Clients: Prioritizing the health and wellbeing of all, striving to create environments that enhance their physical, mental, and emotional wellness.

By adhering to these guiding principles, I can deliver exceptional interior design solutions that not only reflect the unique vision and needs of my clients but also contribute positively to the environment, the community, and the well-being of all.

HOPE HOUSE COMMUNITY HOUSING CENTER 01

OVERVIEW

The Hope House is part of a master plan development intended to become the model for community places in the twenty-first century focused on engagement and well-being.

This project features a variety of mixed-use tenants for a supportive housing and public services complex all under one roof near the heart of downtown Indianapolis.

28% of LGBTQ+ Youth have reported experiencing homelessness or housing instability in which the Hope House aims to provide unparallel housing and social support services. Utilizing research from Trauma-Informed Design Framework, the Hope House can promote Physical Health, Mental Health, and Well-Being in a supportive community space for all.

Through innovative and thoughtful design solutions the Hope House can promote healing, dignity, and joy through a built environment in which all people can thrive.

The challenge at hand was creating a space that is warm, welcoming, and uplifting however providing a strong sense of privacy and security that meets the needs of residents.

DESIGN CONCEPT

The design concept for the Hope House derives from the systems thinking approach as "a holistic approach to analysis that focuses on the way that a system's constituent parts interrelate and work within the context of larger systems".

Incorporating the concept of systems thinking in a design approach can emphasize the importance of designing spaces that work holistically and cohesively with the broader systems they exist within.

Interweaving & connection represents the LGBTQ+ communities' interconnectedness through shared experiences, support networks, and intersectionality.

OVERVIEW

The goal in designing the Monon Rails Hotel is to provide users with a strong connection to both nature and their community through a sustainably designed interior environment.

Through the driving concept of the ancient agora marketplace, our design language emphasizes interconnection with nature and a strong community presence. The design retrieves these ideas through creating a multifaceted hotel space for people to connect through dining, leisure, and appreciation for local heritage.

DESIGN CONCEPT

Humans are increasingly living, working, and spending time in environments where they have insufficient exposure to nature.

As designers, one of our top priorities was to create an environment where our end users feel deeply connected to nature, as well as to their community around them.

Incorporating other key aesthetic elements into our design solution such as local materials, food choices, and art can help celebrate the unique identity of the Monon Rails Hotel.

HOSPITALITY PROJECT

RESEARCH FINDINGS

Our EBD solutions include research that addresses our three issues of sustainability, connection to community, and biophilic design.

Sustainability

Our design implements WELL guidelines in the Mind and Light strategy areas in order to support the needs of our users

We have specified sustainable fabrics and finishes for the surfaces and furniture of our design

FSC certified wood is abundant within our design, and promotes environmental awareness

Sustainably made automatic shades prevent unwanted glares within our space. The darker materials absorb light and heat our spaces

Connection to community

We integrate local, historical art into our design-this celebrates artists and helps foster a greater sense of community. Works

Biophilic Design

Indoor and outdoor plants can be seen within a direct line of sight from at least 75% of all our seating areas

and other famous Indiana artists are featured throughout our space.

The branding of our marketplace advertises local farms and food sources, so that our guests can learn about shopping and dining locally.

We celebrate connection to place through using limestone in our architecture that is abundant in Indiana,

Multiple Living Walls throughout our scope show the importance of live plants for increased breathability and enhanced air quality.

We incorporate organic forms, patterns, shapes, and coloring into our design to pursue biophilia as a lens through with our work is applied.

PROJECTOUTLINE

A local developer is looking to build a multiuse complex in the heart of Dallas in the Deep Ellum district.

PROJECTBACKGROUND

The Deep Ellum neighborhood is a diverse blend of cultural backgrounds and heritage which have shaped it into a place of community and belonging.

The unique intent behind the project is to be a hub for the remote work population and provide resources to entrepreneurs and small startups.

A spectrum of influences create a distinct identity, unifying people through art, food, and music.

With apartments in the upper floors of the tower, the first floor provides amenities to those who use their home as a primary point of work. Including retail space, a fitness center, coffee shop and conferencing center. This space will be considered an extension of the home office to it’s tenants and other local residents of the Deep Ellum area.

The spirit of Deep Ellum encourages artisans and entrepreneurs to pursue their dreams, saturating the urban landscape with a wealth of cultural enrichment.

Togetherness and unity guides a concept that highlights social interaction and inclusiveness as the basis of growth and progress.

CONTRIBUTIONTOGROUP

SPACE PLAN

When creating the space plan I had focused on ensuring a consistent balance between social and working areas in which acoustical control and privacy were key factors. To create a plan that assists with the intent of connection the large reception area serves as the transition space for each area.

SPACE PLAN INTENT

A- The coffee bar and dining area were placed here to maximize daylighting, greet guests, and maintain acoustical control from the conference rooms.

B- The reception area was placed in the center of all the spaces to provide a place to greet guests and serve as a transition space between the different programming areas.

C- The large conference room was tucked away towards the back of the space plan to provide privacy and make use of the large windows for daylighting.

D-The small conference room was placed adjacent to the elevators to provide an intimate meeting space that can be used for short or small meetings.

E- The telephone rooms were placed adjacent to the conference areas so that people could easily step outside a conference or from the coffee shop to take a call or join zoom. Their location was chosen so that they could be easily accessed.

F- The storage/mail room was added to support the main reception area/desk so packages and deliveries could easily be hidden from plain view minimizing visual clutter.

OVERVIEW PROJECT DETAILS

The clients for this project wanted to modernize the exterior and landscaping of their home to increase curb appeal and reduce maintenance.

To assist my clients and their goals, I provided them with a general exterior masterplan guide that highlighted my goals and intent.

I assisted my clients from concept through installation which further strengthen my cross disciplinary skills in interior design, landscape design, and construction skills/knowledge.

The result, the fusion of modern and traditional design formed with simple design solutions for years to come with minimal maintenance and luxurious appeal.
